This is a beautiful place to stay, hidden away from the city. It feels like you have been invited to stay in your best friends house, but they provide amazing food. The room i stayed in had a balcony, and I was able to stand outside as the sun set, listening to the call to prayers. There is one thing: you must be able to carry bags up tight stairways. My suitcase was 60 lbs (23 kg) and i needed help. But I can't wait to return!

Oasis in non-touristy part of La Marsa

I loved the Dar Souad! It’s like a little oasis in what’s a slightly so-so part of town. It’s a 15-min walk to the beach. Taxi rides are easy to snag. (Though hotel staff helped us with important rides - like to the airport.) The staff is truly the highlight: very kind and helpful. The Dar’s decor is somewhat eclectic, and your appreciation for it grows. Little pool very pleasant after a hot day. Some of the property is a little warn (e.g., room bolts)

Perfect weekend

We had a beautiful stay. The staff were so friendly and kind. The breakfast was stunning, traditional Tunisian. The bedrooms were clean. Within walking distance of la Marsa (10 mins) and sidi bou said (40 mins). 20 minute drive from Tunis - 20 dinah using bolt taxi but a nicer place to stay than centre of Tunis as it was quiet and lovely. Loved the little guide Feriel (owner) did on via QR code. Very handy.

Wonderful Tunisian hospitality

Very charming, family run hotel. Very friendly and helpful owners who always had time to chat or answer questions. Amazing home cooked meals are availabe upon request. They were delicious. Nothing to complain about. I only would like to mention about mosquitos at the courtyard by the pool ( mosquito spray was available) , also TV in my room didnt work ( no signal) . Not sure if it was only my room. Shampoo was missing in the bathroom.

Paradise in the city

Unfortunately I was only able to visit this beautiful hotel for 4 hours due to a flight delay; however, I made use of it to the max with a great swim in the beautiful forested environment followed by a comfortable bath in my spacious room.

The mother and daughters own and run this boutique hotel-guest house in the middle of La Marsa neighborhood. It is not far from La Marsa beach and more lively neighborhoods, but this property does seem to be an isolated located. For someone from North America, it is too remote to access to anything and anywhere, but I can see it looks like an oasis property if you seek privacy. The owners and staffs are super friendly, but other than the two daughters who speak fluent English, everyone else is French or Arabic only. They put information pamphlets which give extremely useful tips about how to get around. But for those like me who did not do enough planning and homework, it is very difficult to get around and about, given the fact that it is a poor country and tourism services are few and far between. Ideally you only go there if you have relatives or friends who know how to live there. But on top of that, I make grocery store runs every day (15 min walk) to Monoprix and Carre Four, at least to get bottled waters, and limited choices of things you can eat. Not easy to find varieties of food eateries around. Again barebone tourism resources. But the daughter owner was able to call her friend to pick me up from the hotel/guest house at 5:30am and dropped me at the airport for departure. I appreciate that even I need to pay more. Consider if you don’t have a Bolt app and speak French or Arabic, chances are that you won’t be able to go anywhere.

Bespoke rooms each with its own character, pleasant stay and friendly staff.

Matter was brought to the attention of the staff but not there were not able to immediately resolve the issue.

イタリア人のように世話好きで陽気なおばさんが経営する清潔なホテル

大きな門を開けて中に入ると、左手に客室に通じる階段、右手に中庭にある小さなプールが見える。朝食はこの中庭で振る舞われるが、日替わりケーキ、フランスパン、各種ジャム、オムレツなど。夕食は頼んでおけば中庭に面した広いダイニングルームで出され、オーナーのラジャさんと宿泊客がテーブルを囲むこととなる。ここの食事は上質。客室は広くはないがとても清潔で趣味がよく、個性豊か。 しかし、このホテルの一番の魅力はラジャさんの人柄だろう。このかた実は歯科医。英語、フランス語、アラビア語を話すインテリだが気さくで旅のアドバイスにも乗ってくれる。私はチュニジア南部を見てみたいと言うと、早速従兄弟で旅行会社を営むイブラヒムさん{トラベルアカデミー、日本の代理店（トラベルサンのことか）ともじっこんとのこと}に連絡してくれ運転手付きの個人ツアーをアレンジしてくれた。このツアーが格安。運転手のモーセンさん（普段は銀行で部長職）は各地で値段交渉から食材の吟味までしてくれた。 私の旅が内容が濃く、ストレスの無いものとなったのはラジャさんのおかげと言って良いだろう。
